As you're probably aware, the Cannes Film Festival is happening right now, and celebs are headed to France with all their best handbags, except for the ones that aren't. But if you're an actress with substantial movie industry cred (or a supermodel with absolutely zero) traipsing through LAX this week, there's a pretty good chance you'll make an appearance on the red carpet at Cannes. Or on George Clooney's yacht.

ASHLEY GREENE
TORY BURCH HALF MOON SATCHEL

Here's actress Ashley Greene, leaving dinner at Craig's with an attractive pebbled black leather Tory Burch Half Moon Satchel. This bag retails for a cool $650, and the mini version will only set you back about $500.

CAITRIONA BALFE
MANSUR GAVRIEL BUCKET BAG

Outlander star Caitriona Balfe was spotted en route to Cannes at LAX with a luscious leather Mansur Gavriel Bucket Bag. It's actually possible to buy a Mansur Gavriel bag without waiting impatiently for a site to restock the color you've been dreaming of, which will be good news to many.

EMMA ROBERTS
BALENCIAGA PAPIER A6 MINI TOTE

I don't want to suggest Emma Roberts is making a statement or anything just because she's carried this one tiny bag for a solid month now, but this is the third or fourth time we've seen her with this little Balenciaga. Emma is very prone to loving a bag with a little more public fervor than most celebs.

GIADA DI LAURENTIIS
BOTTEGA VENETA TOTE

Lest ye forget that Giada also loves designer handbags, here she is arriving for an appearance on Good Day Philadelphia with a black leather Bottega Veneta with intrecciato side panels. "But what kind of handbags does the Barefoot Contessa prefer?" we all wondered aloud simultaneously.

GIGI HADID
BULGARI SERPENTI BAG

Here's Gigi Hadid, wandering through Central Park with friends on the way to visit the Met Costume Institute exhibit. She's carrying a lovely, pale yellow Bulgari Serpenti Bag, which is noteworthy, but I feel like the real headline here is that Met Gala attendees occasionally visit the exhibit they celebrated.

KENDALL JENNER
GIVENCHY LUCREZIA BAG

Why does Kendall Jenner get to go to Cannes? Life is so unfair. Here's Kendall, unloading at LAX with a luscious black leather Givenchy Lucrezia, accessorized with both giant Fendi Bag Bugs and a custom strap from Kenzo.

KIRSTEN DUNST
FENDI PEEKABOO BAG

Kirsten Dunst is definitely going to Cannes, and she's headed there with a Fendi bag with a bird on it and a truly astounding pair of high-waisted, elastic-hemmed mom jeans. Congrats, Kirsten. Today, you are the most hipster celeb of all the hipster celebs.

This post would be meaningless to those who already consider themselves hardcore fans of Mansur Gavriel, but for everyone else, here’s something for your kind consideration. We all know of Mansur Gavriel’s perpetually-sold out Bucket which comes in 2 sizes (Regular and Small), but did you know they now have one called theMini Mini?

Measuring just 20 cm in height by 19.5 cm wide, it’s truly tiny and freaking adorable to boot, something no lover of all things small should do without. Available in canvas with a leather bottom (I think that’s new too), a tumbled grained leather and a smooth tanned leather in a wide variety of colours, you might get them at USD345,USD435 and USD395 respectively. ‘Might’ because they’re always sold out, be it on Mansur Gavriel’s own online site or sites like Net-A-Porter and MATCHESFASHION.

So what do you do if you really want one? Keep trying relentlessly at Mansur Gavriel,and keep your eyes peeled over on my Facebook page where I’ve posted availability updates as and when they happened.

By now, you know the drill: Mansur Gavriel bags are cult favorites, they’re permanently sold out and it’s virtually impossible to get your hands on one without a months-in-advance pre-order. The good news, however, is that an opportunity for one such pre-order just arose at Moda Operandi, and it includes canvas and soft leather bags that are brand new for Spring 2015.

The only new shape that MG will introduce for Spring 2015 is a snap-closured envelope clutch, but the bucket bags, totes and backpacks will get a season-appropriate revamp in fine-gauge canvas trimmed with leather. I saw a prototype of one of these bags in person several months ago, on the arm of one of the brand’s owners, and it was one of the nicer majority-canvas bags I’ve ever seen; slightly nautical, a little preppy and just about as luxurious as a bag can be if it’s not made entirely of some sort of leather.

The second notable development in this collection is the addition of a leather that appears to have some slouch to it. Previously, the brand had featured three types of stiff leather, but if that’s not your thing, a soft, pebble-grained leather will be an option in the coming season.

Check out some of our favorite bags from the collection below or shop the full selection at Moda Operandi through September 15.
